What a day! Went to my uncle's house and we put the body lift on the truck today. Dad helped out where he could, and took a LOT of pics!

RCX sure could do some things a little different........and for them to say you HAVE to remove the headlights, grill and top bumper pad to do this? Nope. :D Just lift the body up and pull the damn bumper. :Wedgie:

Anyway, here's some pics!

started out fun..........got a faceful of nasty **** when I zapped the body mount off. :D

Very nice. I remember that fun...worst part was having to drill those new holes. Took 3 drill bits for us to get through it.

The reason the directions say to remove the headlights is because they were written up using a sport model....and on the sport bumpers there are two bumper bolts behind the headlight housing.

Oh, and she fits in the garage. :D

Next truck........I think I could easily do a 4" lift on it. It would be about an inch taller than me now (a hair less than an inch anyway)

oh, and don't trust the 1-3 hours for install time as per the instructions. LOL

Took us 5. But, I'd rather take my time and not rush through it. I would bet that my next one will go a few minutes faster.

next one.......lol, no.
